Gus: Shawn, it's not time for that award yet.
Shawn: Sorry, must've had a cross in the wiring for a moment there.
Gus: Besides, that was a really stupid 'cliffhanger'.
Shawn: I'd like to see you do better.
*Meanwhile, during this presentation, Tony pulls Nick backstage to interview him. Unfortunately, someone forgot to turn off his mic.*
Nick: I didn't do nothin'. I swear!
Tony: Relax, Mr. Carter. Nobody said you did.
Nick: How come you're interviewing me...?
Tony: Who says we're interviewing you? *sits down at the table and begins playing Tetris on his cell phone.*
Nick: So...you're not actually going to ask me any questions?
*Tony shrugs and continues playing his game.*
*Nick pulls out his phone and starts playing a game as well.*
Tim (to Ziva): Doesn't look like Tony's usual tactic is having an affect...
Ziva *sighs and approaches*: Good evening Mr. Carter. Are you comfortable?
Nick: Yeah. Thanks.
Ziva: Not uneasy at all?
Nick: I...wasn't. Should I be?
Ziva: I don't know. Is anything bothering you?
*Nick shifts uncomfortably.*
Tony: So there is something bothering you?
Nick: Well...yeah, now that you mention it. I...it's all these authors...
Ziva: What about them?
Nick: It's just that...they're great and all, but it seems like I'm always...I'm always getting abused by my mother, by Lou, by my girlfriends, or boyfriends, or...Kevin, or I get sick, like with that appendix thingie or cancer or I get all drug-addicted, or Brian's heart gives out and he dies, or my girlfriend gets killed or one of the other guys dies or...*breaks down into tears*
Tony: Good going, Ziva, you broke him...
Ziva: I think that the fanfic writers do a pretty good job of that...
*Onstage*
Brian: They sure do.
Howie: Too good a job sometimes...*winks*
Shawn: The Felix for Best Tear-Jerker goes to:
with runner up
Erin (aka Frick24x): I would like to thank my mom, my dad, my dog, my cat, my college roommate, Bill Gates for creating Microsoft and Al Gore for creating the Internet.
On a more serious note, I would like to thank those that nominated Illusions of Deceit for this Felix Award tonight. It was my first bout back into fan fiction after a seriously long hiatus. I would also like to thank anyone that took the time to review and/or read Illusions.
Howie: Thank you, Erin!
